MOTD2

[LGFOX]

According to Shearer and Dion we were robbed. I completely agree with both of them. The pen was a clear foul. How can the VAR guys get it wrong. Say to the ref have a look. But no. Our second equaliser was perfectly ok too. Barnes nowhere near the keeper.
They also cocked up at Stockley in the West Ham match. Ronaldo clearly fouled twice. Pens all day long. FFS. I was finally starting to believe in VAR after the Euros and the start to this season. But today? I just don’t get it.

And yet Walker gets away with a rugby tackle yesterday

 

[Thorney]

Appalling decisions that get analysed but nothing is ever done about it.
If ever there was a game where the decisions influenced the result it was our game today.
How the fuck can the lino see that Barnes is in the line of sight of the keeper for the 2nd goal If the pundits and all of us watching can see its the wrong decision why cant the Clown at Stockley park see it!

 

[Elsie Heffsey]

Even their keeper didn’t complain. Surely if he’d been unsighted he’d have been in the refs ear.

 

[GTIF]

Tweeted about the pen and Mark Halsey says if VARsays have another buckin look it would have been a free out

 

[DagenhamFox]

The ref would have gone with the decision of the VAR had he watched it back, so it would have been futile.

Whenever refs are asked to take a look at something again, they almost always reverse their original decision. I can scarcely remember a case of a ref being told to review something and not changing their mind.

Beg to disagree LG the only definite penalty in the West Ham Manure game was the West Ham one not given. For me both Ronaldo"s were manufactured contact the second worthy of a booking. Clearly going down before any contact.

Edited to add:listen to the BBC Solskjaer interview and he says two stonewall penalties and then describes both as Cristiano running into them.

 

[Filbo24]

Palace had a nailed on penalty at 0-0 against Liverpool Saturday that hardly got a mention the games corrupt and the new var and relaxed contact rules are making it easy for them

Totally agree. I’d have booked the cheating cunt.

 

[LGFOX]

It was no different to what many others including Vardy have done. Coufel I think stuck his leg out as Ronaldo pushed the ball past him. Short of jumping over his outstretched leg I can’t see what else he could have done.

 

[Yorkfox]

The vast majority do it and go down and weirdly their body normally moves towards the defender and not the direction where the balli is.

People seem to forget that Vardy was the master of the manufactured contact in that glorious season.
